It does? The toshiba_bluetooth_enable() call is supposed to exit silently if
BTST is not on. Is this check not working on some systems?

This seems a bit noisy for the info level as this information seems more aimed
at a developer working to complete the TODO below... debug seems more
appropriate.

Before if the RFKILL was disabled, this would have called
toshiba_bluetooth_enable() which would have checked BTST, found it on, and
enabled the device. In addition to killing the call to
toshiba_bluetooth_enable() when RFKILL is on, this also removes the call when
it's switched off.

I think I'm missing a path. Where does enable occur when the user turns the
radio back on now?
